Jinro is playing pretty well despite being so far behind from the beginning.


Yeah, he can take a beating. I like that in a player cause it's important.

People thinking jinro played terribly are so wrong. You guys can't appreciate strategical brilliance. His nukes were a tactical game, not a "I hope one of these hits his army" ploy.

He was winning those engagements because of a much larger army supply, a maneuver achieved through his use of the nukes.


I totally agree. It is stupid to think he wanted to get lucky with a nuke, it was all tactical movement and a strategy to control space. Sure Jinro made some smaller mistakes, and so did Elfi. But it is laughable to see all those people calling it a terrible game.

Elfi had some very good decisions for example when he managed to kill the planetary 2 times in a row when jinro was out of position, good reactions to nukes and had very nice army micro with zealots in front and hts out of emp range etcetera.


I understand that he was trying to control space, but he wasn't doing it very effectively. Watch MVP use defensive nukes against Lucky for example. He doesn't throw nukes everywhere at random, he uses them sparingly to continuously drive back the deathball. Jinro was constantly wasting nukes when Elfi wasn't even considering moving out.

Also, considering Elfi's previous play, I think drops would have worked wonders even in late game.

Watch Mvp... Are you kidding us?
No terran ever can play as good as Mvp in a tactical nuke based game. It's pointless to compare


i think thats his point. The fact that so much more could have been done with that strategy means that it wasnt that good of a play by jinro


So if you can't play as MVP it's not good play?

btw, was wondering why they are allowed to play on their own accounts, since between games teammates can go and tell tips and tricks how to beat his enemy?


what's the problem with that?

jesus christ, how hard is it to defend against a banshee?

It requires more than 70 apm and 1 control group, too much for elfi to handle.

Does elfi really have every one of his units on one control group? No wonder he is having a hard time dealing with everything.

At the moment I cant see him losing this though, the early attack pushed jinro too far behind.

well, everyone playing in the tournament is striving to be the best no? If not compare his play to the best then who else do you compare it to?

God, I hate tvp at this moment. Bio vs such a perfect death ball is like a massacre. Blizzard needs to buff t3 of terrans.

Although Elfi did not outplay Jinro he did had the mindgame push in the last game and Jinro was greedy the first game. GGs
